Abstract
AbstractOsteoporosis (OP) and osteoarthritis (OA) are skeletal disorders characterized by a reduction in bone density and quality, resulting in increased fragility and susceptibility to fractures. These illnesses are exhibiting a higher prevalence among both males and females. Fracture risk is determined by using the BMD score (Bone Mineral Density). Looking at the bone loss that comes with osteoarthritis (OA) and osteoporosis (OP), this study also looks at the technological methods used to test for these conditions in order to improve therapies and treatment plans for older people. As a matter of consideration, the prevalence of osteoporosis is higher among postmenopausal women (20%) compared to premenopausal women (14.28%) and males (6.77%). The utilization of a preliminary calcaneal Quantitative Ultrasound (QUS) examination is warranted in order to effectively handle the matter of osteoporosis. The prompt assessment of a patient can provide valuable insights into potential fractures and aid in the prevention of bone injury. In a nutshell, it is imperative to comprehend the impact of OA (osteoarthritis) and OP (osteoporosis) on bone health in order to effectively manage the escalating apprehensions surrounding these conditions. Sophisticated diagnostic techniques, such as the calcaneal quantitative ultrasound (QUS) test, have the potential to enhance the well-being of older individuals by enabling early detection and treatment of many ailments.
